Listening now- Should have played his first hour instead of the second at Lost Horizon IMO

jonattonyeah This is because it’s entry level melodic house music at its absolute, most basic form - with very little difference from bottom-rung melodic house that was around 10 years ago.
The label is child-like almost and appeals to his younger demographic of followers. Which lets face it, aren’t going to split the atom any time soon.

    Has he just given up on the old DJing lark then?

    SM001 each to one’s own. To me, it was way better than the Ben Glock nails on a chalkboard set people were wanking over.

        Opium Rooms is leading the charge right now. He was on form that night apparently.

        alistair I was being mildly flippant. The first hour was like he’d just opened his April folder and the second hour was a recording of the Lost Horizon set which was already available online.

            He always seems to turn up in Ireland for some reason. My money would be on the Brooklyn set based on potential audience capture and a cynical view of his marketing team.

            I attended Brooklyn. Keep in mind, born in the early 90s so my exposure to the early parts of Sasha’s career is minimal. It was by far one of the best sets I have seen from the man (Brooklyn - 99 Scott, Brooklyn - Schimanski and Toronto - CODA). Venue was top, track selection elite, smooth ins and outs between techno - melodic - tech-house, few finger twirls from the guy and many smiling faces. I’m hopeful Brooklyn surges back but will trust in Dublin being quite the scorcher at its own.

            SM001 I am not going to die in the ditch so to speak defending a 7/10 set from Sasha but there are plenty of nice tracks (the Polymod and Aera EPs, Anja Schneider etc). Its not achingly upfront but flows pretty well for me. Thought the Orchard one was better. His first lockdown was a complete mess.
